You mean "profitization"

We currently have publicly funded Healthcare delivered by Canadian private not-for-profit companies & registered charities

Most Canadians object to the public funding of private for-profit companies, often foreign-owned (the U.S. model)

This shit is dystopian. Blackhawk helicopters, zip-tied kids, and racial segregation vans.

ICE is terrorizing communities.

Canada has a "loon" on our $1 coin

Now the U.S. wants one?

It sounds like Canadians should avoid the Super Bowl this year

Kristi Noem tells Bad Bunny that ICE will be at the Super Bowl and the event should only be for Americans who “love this country”

I look forward to the day the cult-like devotion to RCT dogma finally succumbs to science, logic & reason

Especially in ID / IPAC World

Good! 👍

👏👏👏

Barry Hunt @barryhunt008.bsky.social · 15d

Thx Conrad 😊

According to Perplexity, X has 200 million daily users, 50% bots, & BlueSky has 4 million daily users, only 5% bots, so about 1/25 the daily interaction of X

And hopefully growing

11,600 followers. Top 0.01%

That's crazy

No wonder it feels like there is little reach on BlueSky

Maybe ppl are passive here?

Maybe there are a lot of Bots here?

75% have fewer than 6 followers

99% have fewer than 400 followers

Is that why the app doesn't show number of impressions?

Huh 🤔

If you have two followers, you are ahead of half of all Bluesky accounts.
If you have 400 followers, you are in the top 1%.
